Didnâ€™t want to leave!

My friends and I had a great time. Every staff member was super nice and friendly. We laid out by the pool everyday and had no problem getting chairs. The activities staff was awesome and very energetic. We all love Milton! Heâ€™s so silly and always made us laugh and tried to get us to participate in the activities even though we had more fun watching. You can tell he loves his job.
We had Javier for breakfast almost everyday and we couldnâ€™t have asked for a better waiter. He was awesome.
The only complaint I have is the alcohol could be better, it was kind of hard to catch a buzz and to keep it. Sergio and Alex were GREAT bartenders though and were very attentive.
Iâ€™ve never been so sad to go home from a vacation before I came here. Definitely will be back! Thanks for the great hospitality from everyone.

Just a Vacation

The resort was just okay nothing special. The liquor choice is very minimal. The food was nothing to brag about except the Italian Restaurant!! The food was amazing there. While we had stayed there 200 college kids had checked in and were very rude at night didn't get much sleep while they were there. Walls are very thin and could hear them partying next door, and could hear all their conversations. The pool bar we found a lot of younger kids just hanging around there, which was hard to grab our drinks.
Miguel at the front desk checked us in. He was very friendly and helpful with everything. Milton from the Entertainment staff was the best!! Noe at the Lobby bar was by far the best bartender. We had met a lot of nice people while staying here. Everyone had a positive attitude.

Family vacation

We had booked an all inclusive for a week here. Hotel rooms are very old and dated. They didnâ€™t smell the best either. Pool was amazing. Food was very repeatative and boring. The barefoot grill for lunch was beyond amazing. Burgers and fries. Fries were just like McDonaldâ€™s. Total crowd pleaser with the kids. Evening entertainment was very good as well. We had taken in a few shows that were well worth the time. Beach was alright but the water was very dirty. Lots of black floating things. We only got our feet wet.
We had no issues finding pool towels or loungers. But we did go right after breakfast to lounge. We were pool side for pretty much all day. Did notice quite a few people who would put towels on loungers and were seldom there. One pair of ladies put towels on first thing in the am and never came back to their towels until almost 4 pm. They were down on beach loungers.
I loved that a couple nights during our visit the resort had select vendors by the pool for your shopping convenience. We never felt pressured or hassled by these vendors.
The one very disappointing note was we were there over my birthday. The resort did nothing for it. They do give out daily schedules and some bday and anniversaries were on it. However mine wasnâ€™t. Then we noticed on a couple doors they had birthday banners. Disappointing that they do it for some but not all.
Overall the resort is dated but we would most likely come back. FYI bring your own salt and pepper if you need it. It was very hard to get and once you did get it the staff would ask for it back before you were done your meal.

Sad to leave Puerto Vallarta, happy to leave Sunscape

The service staff at Sunscape are amazing! They are friendly and work so very hard. We enjoyed our week long stay for the first five days. However, on Friday the hotel was inundated with a conference of "nutritionists" who clearly were away from their mommies and daddies for the first time and couldn't handle the responsibility that comes with being an adult. When we confronted the front desk staff about all of the poor behaviour, the woman told me that they had paid for their stay too. The hotel removed half of the loungers at the pool to accommodate the conference luncheon by the pool, leaving the rest of us to find whatever space there was on the beach not taken by the "nutritionists". Sunscape was NOT prepared to accommodate all of the guests. We had to take on the task of policing the hallways ourselves, or get no sleep whatsoever. No apology, no assistance.
We would love to come back to Puerto Vallarta as our experience with our taxi drivers, excursions, even the beach vendors was wonderful. We won't be staying at Sunscape.
